Even if he had "pulled out" before he ejaculated, there is enough sperm in the pre-ejacaulate fluid to get you pregnant. There are millions of sperm in one drop of semen, so even if he only ejaculated a small amount, there's still a chance of getting pregnant. This is not an effective method of birth control.

There is that morning after pill, but I think you have to use it within 72 hours of intercourse, so I don't know if that would help you or not. At this point, you may just have to wait and see. You can only get pregnant when you ovulate, you may want to chart your cycle, to see if this was during an ovulation time. At least that way, you have an idea of what your chances of being pregnant are.

For the future, you should start using a reliable form of birth control, like condoms, the pill, etc.

There is an old saying: "It's too late to lock the barn door after the horse has run away!"

As the other poster said, "pulling out" is useless, because from the moment he's erect, he's leaking pre-ejaculate, and one drop of semen contains hundreds of sperm. If you've been doing this regularly, you're very lucky you haven't gotten pregnant. If it's been less than 72 hours, you can call your doctor for the "morning after" pill. If it's been more than 72 hours, there is nothing you can do but wait until you can take a pregnancy test, which would be around the time your next period is due.

In the meantime, if you don't want to get pregnant, at the very least, you should be using condoms, and of course you should also be using them for protection from STD's....unless he was a virgin before you, or he's been tested for STD's. He can have all kinds of them without any symptoms, and give them to you.

What you need to do is get yourself on b/c, then you'll have no worries. See your doctor, or planned parenthood, and protect yourself.

You can get the morning after pill from your doctor, a hospital emergency room or a planned parenthood clinic.

You are on birth control pills?

You "have" Microgynon 30? That's a birth control pill. Do you TAKE them, or do you just HAVE them? If you have them, then you're supposed to take them every day, whether or not you have sex that day! If you're taking them as you're supposed to take them, then you can't get pregnant even if he ejaculates inside you every time. If you're NOT taking them daily, then you're wasting your time with them. And taking them AFTER you're pregnant will change nothing, and can be dangerous for the fetus. It will NOT abort the fetus, but can cause birth defects.

And, the microgynon 30 doesn't protect you from STD's.

The morning after pill is a high dose birth control pill, and I have heard of women taking a certain number of regular birth control pills at a time to use for this purpose--the number of pills required depends on the brand and you can find out from the doctor. However, if you take the birth control pill regularly, this is not necessary because you are already protected.
